Hi, I'm having trouble accessing the "Windows"-type Mathematica in my computer = lab, which uses Xfce terminals, that is I cannot edit whatever I've typed. For example, pressing Shift-Enter or Enter simply goes to the next line, no= t evaluate input. I had to use the mouse to choose the Evaluate options. Pr= essing "Delete" or "Backspace" doesn't work, I have to retype the whole lin= e if I make a mistake. Also, after I save and close the session down, I can= only continue working at the top of the notebook space when I open the fil= e again. Basically, the version in the lab is very similar to the command-l= ine version, except the former was able to show the palette. Also, the cursor on the interface is that of a "hand" and not a "I", like i= n Adobe Reader where all you can do is drag the page around but not edit. S= o I'm having trouble editing the entries in a matrix created by a palette. = I can type in the first entry, but I can't get to the rest of the entries. = Pressing "Tab" simply creates the tab space, and I can't click on the other= boxes in the matrix to edit them. Are there any options that I'm not aware of that would make it easier to wo= rk with, that is, to be able to edit stuff easily? Thank you. Regards, Rayne
